Introduction to the Management Pack Plus for Identity Management

This section covers the following topics: • Functional Overview • Monitored Targets • Additional Sources of Information • System Requirements • Installing Oracle Enterprise Manager Grid Control 10g Release 1 • Prerequisites for Discovering Oracle Identity Management Targets in Enterprise

Manager Functional Overview As more and more businesses rely on the Oracle Identity and Access Management Suite to control access to their mission‐critical applications (both packaged applications and custom‐built web applications) and to provision resources across their organizations, the need to achieve predictable performance and availability for Oracle Identity Management systems has become a top priority for many businesses. An outage or slow performance in access and identity services, for instance, can have negative impacts on the business bottom‐line as end‐users are unable to log in to mission‐critical applications. To help you maximize the value of Oracle Identity Management systems, and to deliver a superior ownership experience while keeping a lid on the systems management costs, Oracle provides Oracle Management Pack Plus for Identity Management (the Identity Management Pack), which leverages Oracle Enterprise Manager Grid Control’s advanced management capabilities, to provide an integrated and top‐down solution for your Oracle Identity Management environment.

Installing Oracle Enterprise Manager Grid Control 11g Release 1 Before you begin configuring Grid Control 11g Release 1 (11.1.0.1.0) to manage your Identity Management components, you must install and configure Grid Control 11g Release 1 (11.1.0.1.0) on at least one host computer on your network. Oracle recommends that you install Grid Control on dedicated host(s). For example, if the Identity Management components are installed on host1.us.oracle.com, then install and configure the Oracle Management Service and Oracle Management Repository on host2.us.oracle.com. Install the Grid Control 11g Management Agent on every host that includes the components you want to manage with Grid Control.

See Also: Oracle Enterprise Manager Grid Control Basic Installation Guide 11g Release 1 (11.1.0.1.0) All installation files can be accessed on Oracle’s OTN website: http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/oem/index.html

Prerequisites for Discovering Oracle Identity Management Targets in Enterprise Manager Before you start monitoring Oracle Identity Management targets in Enterprise Manger, you must perform the following tasks:

• Install the Enterprise Manager Grid Control 11g Release 1 (11.1.0.1.0) The information required to perform these steps is available in the Oracle Enterprise Manager Grid Control Basic Installation Guide 11g Release 1 (11.1.0.1.0) http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11857_01/install.111/e15838/toc.htm • Install Grid Control 11g Release 1 (11.1.0.1.0) Agent on each of the hosts that run Oracle

Identity Management components. If you would like to monitor additional targets, such as Oracle Application Server, Oracle Weblogic Server, JBoss Application Server, MS Active Directory, MS IIS and databases supporting Oracle Identity Management, and you have the proper license for monitoring

For more information about Application Performance Management, please refer to the System Monitoring section of the Enterprise Manager Concepts Guide: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B16240_01/doc/em.102/b31949/toc.htm The Management Pack Plus for Identity Management in Enterprise Manager provides comprehensive, flexible, easy‐to‐use monitoring functionality that supports the timely detection and notification of impending IT problems across your Oracle Identity Management environment. This chapter covers the following topics:

• Monitoring Basics • Monitoring Templates • User‐Defined Metrics • Real‐Time Performance Charts

Monitoring Basics System monitoring functionality permits unattended monitoring of your IT environment. The Management Pack Plus for Identity Management in Enterprise Manager comes with a comprehensive set of performance and health metrics that allows monitoring of key components in your Oracle Identity Management environment, such as Access Manager – Access Server, Access Manager – Identity Server, Identity Manager Server, Identity Federation Server, as well as the underlying hosts on which they run. The collected performance metrics for the monitored Oracle Identity Management targets are described in the Oracle Identity Management Performance Metrics section. For information about collected performance metrics for the underlying hosts please refer to the Host section of the Enterprise Manager Framework, Host, and Services Metric Reference Manual: (http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B16240_01/doc/em.102/b16230/toc.htm).

The Management Agent on each monitored host monitors the status, health, and performance of all managed components (also referred to as targets) on that host. If a target goes down, or if a performance metric crosses a warning or critical threshold, an alert is generated and sent to Enterprise Manager and to Enterprise Manager administrators who have registered interest in receiving such notifications. Systems monitoring functionality and the mechanisms that support this functionality are discussed in the following sections:

• Out‐of‐Box Monitoring • Metric Baselines • Alerts • Notifications • Corrective Actions • Blackouts

Out‐of‐Box Monitoring

Enterprise Manager's Management Agents automatically start monitoring their host's systems (including hardware and software configuration data on these hosts) as soon as they are deployed and started. Metrics from all monitored components are stored and aggregated in the Management Repository, providing administrators with a rich source of diagnostic information and trend analysis data. When critical alerts are detected, notifications are sent to administrators for rapid resolution. Out‐of‐box, Enterprise Manager monitoring functionality provides:

• In‐depth monitoring with Oracle‐recommended metrics and thresholds. • Access to real‐time performance charts. • Collection, storage, and aggregation of metric data in the Management Repository. This

allows you to perform strategic tasks such as trend analysis and reporting. • E‐mail notification for detected critical alerts.

The Management Pack Plus for Identity Management in Enterprise Manager monitors all critical components in your Oracle Identity Management environment. Some examples of monitored metrics are:

• Successful/Failed Authentications and Authorizations (Oracle Access Manager – Access Server)

• Successful/Failed Requests (Oracle Access Manager – Identity Server) • Application Response Time (Oracle Identity Manager Server) • Number of Provisioned Users, Number of Users Deleted/Disabled/Locked (Oracle

Identity Manager Repository) • Identity Provider & Service Provider Metrics (Oracle Identity Federation Server) • LDAP Server Load, Total Users Sessions (Oracle Internet Directory) • Network Interface Total I/O Rate (Host)

Perform the following steps to view all metrics collected for a monitored Oracle Identity Management target:

1. Click the Targets tab on the Enterprise Manager Console.

47 | P a g e


2. Click the Identity and Access tab. Note: If the Identity and Access sub‐tab is not shown, please add it by clicking on Preferences > Target Subtabs.

3. Click on one of the Oracle Identity Management targets. For instance, if you would like to view the collected metrics for Access Manager – Access Server, click on the target of type Access Manager – Access Server.

4. Click on the All Metrics link in the Related Links section. Some metrics have associated predefined limiting parameters called thresholds that cause alerts to be triggered when collected metric values exceed these limits. Enterprise Manager allows you to set metric threshold values for two levels of alert severity:

• Warning ‐ Attention is required in a particular area, but the area is still functional. • Critical ‐ Immediate action is required in a particular area. The area is either not

functional or indicative of imminent problems. Perform the following steps to change the warning and critical thresholds of performance metrics for a monitored Oracle Identity Management target:

1. Click the Targets tab on the Enterprise Manager Console. 2. Click the Identity and Access tab. Note: If the Identity and Access sub‐tab is not shown,

please add it by clicking on Preferences > Target Subtabs. 3. Click on one of the Oracle Identity Management targets. For instance, if you would like

to change performance metrics thresholds for Access Manager ‐ Access Server, click on the target of type Access Manager ‐ Access Server.

4. Click on the Metric and Policy Settings link in the Related Links section. In addition to monitoring your Oracle Identity Management environment from a system perspective, you may also monitor your environment from a service‐oriented perspective using Grid Control’s Service Level Management framework – please view the Service Level Management section for more information about Service Level Management. You can define metrics to measure the performance of the service. You can add performance metrics from any of the key components that are critical for running the service. Once you've added metrics, you can define thresholds, which, when exceeded, will generate alerts. Perform the following steps to add performance metrics based on any of the key components and change the warning and critical thresholds for the selected metrics:


please add it by clicking on Preferences > Target Subtabs. 3. From the View drop‐down menu, select Systems and Services. 4. Click on one of the Oracle Identity Management Service targets of type Generic Service.

For more information, please see the Creating Generic Service or Web Application Targets for Identity Management section.

5. Click on the Monitoring Configuration tab. 6. Click on the Performance Metrics link. 7. Select Based on System from the Add dropdown list and click on the Go button. 8. Select the Oracle Identity Management target that you would like to monitor from the

Target Type dropdown list, and then select the desired performance metric from the Metric dropdown list. Click Continue to proceed.

48 | P a g e


9. Define the Warning Threshold and Critical Threshold for the selected performance metric and click OK to save your changes.

Metric Baselines

Metric baselines are statistical characterizations of system performance over well‐defined time periods. Metric baselines can be used to implement adaptive alert thresholds for certain performance metrics as well as provide normalized views of system performance. Adaptive alert thresholds are used to detect unusual performance events. Baseline normalized views of metric behavior help administrators explain and understand such events. Metric baselines are well defined time intervals (baseline periods) over which Enterprise Manager has captured system performance metrics. The underlying assumption of metric baselines is that systems with relatively stable performance should exhibit similar metric observations (that is, values) over times of comparable workload. Two types of baseline periods are supported: moving window baseline periods and static baseline periods. Moving window baseline periods are defined as some number of days prior to the current date (example: Last 7 days). This allows comparison of current metric values with recently observed history. Moving window baselines are useful for operational systems with predictable workload cycles (example: OLTP days and batch nights). Static baselines are periods of time that you define that are of particular interest to you (example: end of the fiscal year). These baselines can be used to characterize workload periods for comparison against future occurrences of that workload (example: compare end of the fiscal year from one calendar year to the next). Once metric baselines are defined, they can be used to establish alert thresholds that are statistically significant and adapt to expected variations across time. For example, you can define alert thresholds to be generated based on significance level, such as the HIGH significance level thresholds are values that occur 5 in 100 times. Alternatively, you can generate thresholds based on a percentage of the maximum value observed within the baseline period. These can be used to generate alerts when performance metric values are observed to exceed normal peaks within that period.

Note: Metric baselines are supported for the Oracle Identity Management Service of type Generic Service only – other Oracle Identity Management targets do not support metric baselines.

Perform the following steps to customize metric baselines for the Oracle Identity Management Service of type Generic Service:


please add it by clicking on Preferences > Target Subtabs. 3. From the View drop‐down menu, select Systems and Services. 4. Click on the Oracle Identity Management Service target of type Generic Service. 5. Click on the Monitoring Configuration tab. 6. Click on the Metric Baselines link in the Related Links section.

49 | P a g e


Alerts

When a metric threshold value is reached, an alert is generated. An alert indicates a potential problem; either a warning or critical threshold for a monitored metric has been crossed. An alert can also be generated for various target availability states, such as:

• Target is down. • Oracle Management Agent monitoring the target is unreachable.

For information about defining warning and critical thresholds, please refer to the Out‐of‐Box Monitoring section. When an alert is generated, you can access details about the alert from the Enterprise Manager console. In the All Targets Alerts section of the Enterprise Manager home page, you can view Critical Alerts, Warning Alerts and Errors for all monitored targets. You can also view a summary of alerts for monitored Oracle Identity Management targets on the Identity and Access page. The home page of any of the monitored Oracle Identity Management targets lists the alerts specific to that target. You may also view a history of alerts for diagnostics purposes. Perform the following steps to view alert history for a monitored Oracle Identity Management target:



to view alert history for Access Manager ‐ Access Server, click on the target of type Access Manager ‐ Access Server.

4. Click on Alert History link in the Related Links section. Enterprise Manager provides various options to respond to alerts. Administrators can be automatically notified when an alert triggers and/or corrective actions can be set up to automatically resolve an alert condition. For information about setting up notifications, please refer to the Notifications section. For information about setting up corrective actions, please refer to the Corrective Actions section.

Notifications

When a target becomes unavailable or if thresholds for performance are crossed, alerts are generated in the Enterprise Manager console and notifications are sent to the appropriate

50 | P a g e


administrators. Enterprise Manager supports notifications via e‐mail (including e‐mail‐to‐page systems), SNMP traps, and/or by running custom scripts. Enterprise Manager supports these various notification mechanisms via notification methods. A notification method is used to specify the particulars associated with a specific notification mechanism, for example, which SMTP gateway(s) to use for e‐mail, which OS script to run to log trouble‐tickets, and so on. Super Administrators perform a one‐time setup of the various types of notification methods available for use. Once defined, other administrators can create notification rules that specify the set of criteria that determines when a notification should be sent and how it should be sent. The criteria defined in notification rules include the targets, metrics and severity states (clear, warning or critical) and the notification method that should be used when an alert occurs that matches the criteria. For example, you can define a notification rule that specifies e‐mail should be sent to you when CPU Utilization on any host target is at critical severity, or another notification rule that creates a trouble‐ticket when any database is down. Once a notification rule is defined, it can be made public for sharing across administrators. For example, administrators can subscribe to the same rule if they are interested in receiving alerts for the same criteria defined in the rule. Alternatively, an Enterprise Manager Super Administrator can assign notification rules to other administrators such that they receive notifications for alerts as defined in the rule. Notifications are not limited to alerting administrators. Notification methods can be extended to execute any custom OS script or PL/SQL procedure, and thus can be used to automate any type of alert handling. For example, administrators can define notification methods that call into a trouble ticketing system, invoke third‐party APIs to share alert information with other monitoring systems, or log a bug against a product. Perform the following steps to customize notifications:

1. Click the Setup link on the Enterprise Manager Console (located in the upper right section).

2. Click on the Notification Methods tab. 3. Enter information required for the Mail Server and add the desired notification methods

Corrective Actions

Corrective actions allow you to specify automated responses to alerts. Corrective actions ensure that routine responses to alerts are automatically executed; thereby saving administrator time and ensuring problems are dealt with before they noticeably impact users. For example, if Enterprise Manager detects that a component, such as the Identity Manager Server is down, a corrective action can be specified to automatically run an OS command to start it back up. A corrective action is thus any task you specify that will be executed when a metric triggers a warning or critical alert severity. By default, the corrective action runs on the target on which the alert has triggered. Administrators can also receive notifications for the success or failure of corrective actions. Corrective actions for a target can be defined by all Enterprise Manager administrators who have been granted OPERATOR or greater privilege on the target. For any metric, you can define different corrective actions when the metric triggers at warning severity or at critical severity.

51 | P a g e


Corrective actions must run using the credentials of a specific Enterprise Manager administrator. For this reason, whenever a corrective action is created or modified, the credentials that the modified action will run with must be specified. Perform the following steps to set up corrective actions based on performance metrics for a monitored Oracle Identity Management target:



to set up corrective actions based on performance metrics thresholds for Access Manager ‐ Access Server, click on the target of type Access Manager ‐ Access Server.

4. Click on the Metric and Policy Settings link in the Related Links section. 5. Click on the Edit link for the performance metric for which you would like to set up

corrective action. 6. Click on the Add button in the Corrective Actions section to add corrective actions for

either critical or warning thresholds.

Blackouts

Blackouts allow you to support planned outage periods to perform emergency or scheduled maintenance. When a target is put under blackout, monitoring is suspended, thus preventing unnecessary alerts from being sent when you bring down a target for scheduled maintenance operations such as database backup or hardware upgrade. Blackout periods are automatically excluded when calculating a target's overall availability. A blackout period can be defined for individual targets, a group of targets or for all targets on a host. The blackout can be scheduled to run immediately or in the future, and to run indefinitely or stop after a specific duration. Blackouts can be created on an as‐needed basis, or scheduled to run at regular intervals. If, during the maintenance period, you discover that you need more (or less) time to complete maintenance tasks, you can easily extend (or stop) the blackout that is currently in effect. Blackout functionality is available from both the Enterprise Manager console as well as via the Enterprise Manager command‐line interface (EMCLI). The EMCLI is often useful for administrators who would like to incorporate the blacking out of a target within their maintenance scripts. When a blackout ends, the Management Agent automatically re‐evaluates all metrics for the target to provide current status of the target post‐blackout. If an administrator inadvertently performs scheduled maintenance on a target without first putting the target under blackout, these periods would be reflected as target downtime instead of planned blackout periods. This has an adverse impact on the target's availability records. In such cases, Enterprise Manager allows Super Administrators to go back and define the blackout period that should have happened at that time. The ability to create these retroactive blackouts provides Super Administrators with the flexibility to define a more accurate picture of target availability. Perform the following steps to set up blackouts for a monitored Oracle Identity Management target:

52 | P a g e



2. Click on the Blackouts tab. 3. Click on the Create button to launch a blackout wizard. 4. Select the desired target types and enter all the requested information

Monitoring Templates Monitoring templates simplify the task of standardizing monitoring settings across your enterprise by allowing you to specify the monitoring settings once and apply them to your monitored targets. This makes it easy for you to apply specific monitoring settings to specific classes of targets throughout your enterprise. For example, you can define one monitoring template for test databases and another monitoring template for production databases. A monitoring template defines all Enterprise Manager parameters you would normally set to monitor a target, such as:

• Target type to which the template applies. • Metrics (including user‐defined metrics), thresholds, metric collection schedules, and

corrective actions. When a change is made to a template, you can reapply the template across affected targets in order to propagate the new changes. You can reapply the monitoring templates as often as needed. For any target, you can preserve custom monitoring settings by specifying metric settings that can never be overwritten by a template. Perform the following steps to set up blackouts for a monitored Oracle Identity Management target:


2. Click on the Monitoring Templates tab. 3. Click on the Create button to launch a monitoring template wizard. 4. Select the desired target and click Continue. 5. Enter the information requested (including Warning and Critical Thresholds) and click

OK to save your settings. User‐Defined Metrics User‐defined metrics allow you to extend the reach of Enterprise Manager's monitoring to conditions specific to particular environments via custom scripts. Once a user‐defined metric is defined, it will be monitored, aggregated in the repository, and can trigger alerts like any other metric in Enterprise Manager. The supported user‐defined metrics in the Management Pack Plus for Identity Management are the one created at the host‐level (Operating System). Operating System (OS) User‐Defined Metrics can be accessed from Host target home pages and allow you to implement custom monitoring functions via OS scripts. Perform the following steps to set up user‐define metrics for the underlying hosts supporting the Oracle Identity Management environment:

1. Click the Targets tab on the Enterprise Manager Console.

53 | P a g e

54 Configuration Management

2. Click the All Targets tab. 3. Click on the target of type Host on which Oracle Identity Management components are

running. 4. Click on the User‐Define Metrics link in the Related Links section. 5. Click on the Create button to create a new user‐define metric 6. Enter all the requested information and click OK to save your changes.

If you already have your own library of custom monitoring scripts, you can leverage Enterprise Manager's monitoring features by integrating these scripts with Enterprise Manager as OS user‐defined metrics. Real‐Time Performance Charts Real‐time performance charts are available for all monitored Oracle Identity Management targets. The performance charts displayed are based on performance metrics collected by Enterprise Manager. In Oracle Enterprise Manager Grid Control 11gR1, customizable performance summaries are available for Oracle Identity Management 11gR1 targets with a “Metric Palette” that allows users to drag and drop performance charts. Additionally, drill‐downs into usage and performance statistics are available for:

• Oracle Identity Federation Providers – showing authentication requests and responses, HTTP and SOAP requests and responses, and authentication response processing time

• Oracle Internet Directory User Statistics – showing failed and completed LDAP operations like Add/Bind/Compare/Delete/Modify/Search

• Directory Integration Platform Synchronization and Provisioning Profiles – showing job status, successful/skipped/failed changes, completion time, and errors

The collected performance metrics for the monitored Oracle Identity Management targets are described in the Oracle Identity Management Performance Metrics section.

Configuration Management

This chapter explains how Enterprise Manager Grid Control simplifies the monitoring and management of Oracle Access Manager targets in your enterprise through Configuration Management. For more information about Configuration Management, please refer to the Enterprise Configuration Management section of the Enterprise Manager Concepts Guide: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B16240_01/doc/em.102/b31949/toc.htm Configuration Management allows you to view, save, track, compare, and search the configuration information stored in the Management Repository for the monitored Oracle Identity Management targets. The ability to compare configuration settings is useful in diagnostic situations when administrators need to find out what parameter has changed, or how two servers or server components differ from each other. Configuration Management is also useful in achieving regulatory compliance cost effectively, as it could be extremely tedious and error prone to try to keep track of changes manually.

54 | P a g e



Note: The Management Pack Plus for Identity Management supports configuration management for the monitored Oracle Access Manager 10g targets: Access Manager – Access Server and Access Manager – Identity Server, as well as Oracle Identity Management 11gR1 targets: Oracle Internet Directory, Oracle Virtual Directory, Identity Federation Server, and Directory Integration Platform Server.

This section covers the following topics:

• Viewing Configurations • Comparing Configurations • Configuration History

Viewing Configurations Using the Management Pack Plus for Identity Management, you can perform the following actions for monitored Oracle Access Manager targets: Access Manager – Access Server and Access Manager – Identity Server.

• View the last collected and saved configuration • Save configurations to a configuration file (XML file) or to the Management Repository • Search collected configuration data • View the history of configuration changes • Compare configurations (refer to "Comparing Configurations" in this chapter for more

detailed information) Perform the following steps to view configuration of a monitored Oracle Identity Management target:


please add it by clicking on Preferences > Target Subtabs. 3. Click on one of the Oracle Access Manager targets. For instance, if you would like to

view configuration for Access Manager – Access Server, click on the target of type Access Manager – Access Server.

4. Click on the View Configuration link in the Configuration section. 5. To save a “snapshot” of the current configuration, click on the Save button. 6. You may select “Save to Enterprise Manager Repository” or “Export to File”. Click OK to

continue.

55 | P a g e


Comparing Configurations Grid Control gives you the tools to perform comparisons between configurations of the same target type. These comparisons are useful for quickly finding similarities and differences between two or more configurations. You can compare:

• Two configurations in the Management Repository • Two saved configuration files • One configuration to multiple configurations • A configuration in the Management Repository to a saved configuration file

When two target configurations are compared, all categories of collected configuration information are included. Grid Control presents the summary results of the comparison in a tabular format. More information that is detailed is available by drilling down from those summary results. Perform the following steps to compare configurations of a monitored Oracle Access Manager target:



compare configurations for Access Manager – Access Server, click on the target of type Access Manager – Access Server.

4. Click on the Compare Configuration link in the Configuration section. 5. You may select another target (in this case, another Access Manager – Access Server) for

comparison or click on Saved Configurations to launch a comparison between the current configuration and an already saved configuration snapshot.

6. To compare the current configuration to multiple snapshots, click on Compare Multiple Configurations link in the Configuration section of the Access Manager – Access Server target home page.

Configuration History Grid Control gives you the tools to view the history of configuration changes for all monitored Oracle Access Manager targets. Perform the following steps to view configuration history of a monitored Oracle Access Manager target:



view configuration history for Access Manager – Access Server, click on the target of type Access Manager – Access Server.

4. Click on the Configuration History link in the Configuration section.

56 | P a g e

57 Service Level Management

5. From the View History Records dropdown menu, select Show All to view all the configuration changes that occurred in Access Manager – Access Server

6. Click on the Details link to view more information about a specific change 7. The configuration changes can also be saved to a CSV file by clicking on the Save to File

button. The change history audit trail is useful not only for diagnostic purposes, but also for compliance, as laws such as SOX and HIPAA require traceability of changes at all levels of the application stack. Because changes are tracked automatically, it makes compliance a lot easier, quicker and less expensive to implement.

Service Level Management

In addition to monitoring performance metrics for each individual Oracle Identity Management target, you may also monitor your environment from a service‐oriented perspective using Grid Control’s Service Level Management. With the Management Pack Plus for Identity Management, users can create targets of type Generic Service or Web Application associated with any of the monitored Identity Management Systems: Access Manager – Access System, Access Manager – Identity System, Identity Federation System, and Identity Manager System. The Web Application or Generic Service target provides an end‐to‐end service oriented view of the monitored Oracle Identity Management targets with access to performance and usage metrics, service tests, service level rules, service availability definition, alerts, charts, and topology view. For more information about Service Level Management, please refer to the Service Management section of the Enterprise Manager Concepts Guide: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B16240_01/doc/em.102/b31949/toc.htm Enterprise Manager Grid Control provides a comprehensive monitoring solution that helps you to effectively manage services from the overview level to the individual component level. When a service fails or performs poorly, Grid Control provides diagnostics tools that help to resolve problems quickly and efficiently, significantly reducing administrative costs spent on problem identification and resolution. Finally, customized reports offer a valuable mechanism to analyze the behavior of the applications over time. Service Level Management is discussed in the following sections:

• Service Tests and Beacons • Performance and Usage • Availability • Service‐Level Rules • Topology View • Service Performance • Reports

Service Tests and Beacons Service tests are functional tests that are defined by Enterprise Manager administrators to represent end user tasks, and are used to determine the availability and performance of a

57 | P a g e



service. The availability of a service is defined in terms of the successful execution of either all or at least one of the ‘key’ service tests defined for the service. For the Oracle Access Manager, Oracle Identity Manager and Oracle Identity Federation, an administrator can define a combination of one or more navigation paths within the application to be used as the criteria for determining the service’s availability. For example, Oracle Access Manager requires that a user successfully log on (i.e. a user is successfully authenticated and authorized) for the service to be considered available. Enterprise Manager uses these logical tasks or ‘transactions’ to define the availability of a Web application. These critical paths of business processes for Web applications are recorded, and the stored transaction or ‘service test’ can be launched at a user‐defined interval from strategic locations across the user‐base. Availability using service tests are monitored from various global user communities within the network. A service may be unavailable for all users or it may be a problem that is impacting users contained only within a specific network or location. To determine application availability from different end‐points, ‘beacons’ are used to play back service tests at specified intervals from various locations that are representative of your user communities. Beacons are client robots that collect availability and performance data at specified intervals at strategic locations in the network. Perform the following steps to add a beacon:

1. Click the Targets tab on the Enterprise Manager Console. 2. Click the All Targets tab. 3. Click on the target of type Agent on which you would like to create a beacon 4. From the Add dropdown list, select Beacon and click on the Go button.

Perform the following steps to record a web transaction with critical paths as a service test:

1. Click the Targets tab on the Enterprise Manager Console. 2. Click the All Targets tab. 3. Click on the Oracle Identity Management Service target of type Generic Service or Web

Application. For more information, please see the Creating Generic Service or Web Application Targets for Identity Management section.

4. Click on the Monitoring Configuration tab. 5. Click on the Service Tests and Beacons link. 6. From the Service Tests section, select Web Transaction from the Test Type dropdown

list and click on the Add button. Note: You can also select LDAP Service Tests allowing you to execute Search/Compare operations against an LDAP Server – e.g. OID and OVD.

7. Click on the Go button to Record a Transaction 8. Click on the Record button and navigate through the critical paths in your web‐browser.

Close the web‐browser when you are done and click on the Continue button. 9. Verify the recorded steps and click on the Continue button. 10. Select either Browser Simulation or Request Simulation as the Playback Mode. Refer to

Request Simulation vs. Browser Simulation section for more information about the differences between the two playback modes.

11. Verify all the information and click OK to save your service test. 12. From the Beacons section, click on the Add button. 13. Select the desired beacon and click on the Select button.

58 | P a g e


14. To enable your newly created service test, select your service test from the Service Tests section and click on the Enable button.

Perform the following steps to configure an LDAP service test:

1. Click the Targets tab on the Enterprise Manager Console. 2. Click the All Targets tab. 3. Click on the Oracle Identity Management Service target of type Generic Service. For

more information, please see the Creating Generic Service or Web Application Targets for Identity Management section.

4. Click on the Monitoring Configuration tab. 5. Click on the Service Tests and Beacons link. 6. From the Service Tests section, select LDAP from the Test Type dropdown list and click

on the Add button. 7. Fill in the information requested on the page – including username/password, Search

Base, and Compare Attribute Name/Value. 8. Verify all the information and click OK to save your service test.

Request Simulation vs. Browser Simulation

The Request Simulation mode in Grid Control 10.2.0.4 is equivalent to the web transaction monitoring capability in Grid Control 10.2.0.3. In Grid Control 10.2.0.3, when a web transaction is recorded, the web transaction monitoring capability records all the HTTP requests that the browser made. The Beacon plays back a web transaction by sending an equivalent set of HTTP requests. Due to the dynamic nature of HTTP requests (especially session specific parameters), the request simulation approach may not be suitable for certain web transactions because requests that contain parameters only relevant to the recording session may not be recorded. In Grid Control 10.2.0.4, a new mode of playback: Browser Simulation was introduced. When a web transaction is recorded, all the HTTP requests, as well as the mouse and keyboard actions are recorded. A Beacon plays back a web transaction by either sending HTTP requests (Request Simulation) or by opening a browser and performing these mouse and keyboard actions (Browser Simulation). For example, data entry in a text field, mouse click on a button, etc. At the end of the web transaction recording, a user needs to pick a playback mode – (Request Simulation or Browser Simulation) based on a simple heuristic. Steps to verify the Request Simulation mode is suitable after recording:

1. Select the radio button Request Simulation. 2. Click Play next to the selection. 3. Observe the playback flow. Pay attention to any abnormal pages. 4. Click Verify Service Test, this may take a while depends on the complexity of the test. 5. Make sure the beacon reports the status as Up. 6. Click Continue to go back to the web transaction creation screen.

59 | P a g e


Steps to verify the Browser Simulation mode is suitable after recording:

1. Make sure you have Grid Control 10.2.0.4 Agent running on Windows XP Platform for the selected beacon. The Browser Simulation playback mode is supported on Windows XP beacons only – Browser Simulation is not supported on Windows 2000/2003 beacons. For information about setting up Windows XP beacons to support Browser Simulation, please refer to the Troubleshooting the Management Pack Plus for Identity Management section.

2. Select the radio button Browser Simulation. 3. Click Play next to the selection. 4. Observe the playback flow. Again, pay attention to any abnormal pages. 5. If the play seems to work successfully, save the web transaction.

Performance and Usage You can define metrics to measure the performance and usage of the service. Performance indicates the response time of the service as experienced by the end user. Usage metrics are based on the user demand or load on the system. Once you've added metrics, you can define thresholds, which, when exceeded, will generate alerts. Additionally, the charts for the performance and usage metrics that you define will be displayed in the Charts page (sub‐tab). Finally, the performance metrics that you add will be available for defining the Availability of the service as discussed in the following section. Perform the following steps to add performance metrics:


Application. 4. Click on the Monitoring Configuration tab. 5. Click on the Performance Metrics link. 6. You may select Based on System or Based on Service Test from the Add dropdown list.

Click on the Go button. 7. Define the Warning Threshold and Critical Threshold for the selected performance

metric and click OK to save your changes. Perform the following steps to add usage metrics:


Application. 4. Click on the Monitoring Configuration tab. 5. Click on the Usage Metrics link. 6. Click on the Add button and select the desired usage metrics.

60 | P a g e


7. Define the Warning Threshold and Critical Threshold for the selected performance metric and click OK to save your changes.

Availability "Availability" of a service is a measure of the end users' ability to access the service at a given point in time. However, the rules of what constitutes availability may differ from one application to another. For example, for a Customer Relationship Management (CRM) application, availability may mean that a user can successfully log on to the application and access a sales report. For an online store, availability may be monitored based on whether the user can successfully log in, browse the store, and make an online purchase. Grid Control allows you to define the availability of your service based on service tests or systems.

• Service Test‐Based Availability: Choose this option if the availability of your service is determined by the availability of a critical functionality to your end users. While defining a service test, choose the protocol that most closely matches the critical functionality of your business process, and beacon locations that match the locations of your user communities. You can define one or more service tests using standard protocols and designate one or more service tests as "Key Tests." These key tests can be executed by one or more "Key Beacons" in different user communities. A service is considered available if one or all key tests can be executed successfully by at least one beacon, depending on your availability definition.

• System‐Based Availability: Your service's availability can alternatively be based on the underlying system that hosts the service. Select the components that are critical to running your service and designate one or more components as "Key Components," which are used to determine the availability of the service. The service is considered available as long as at least one or all key components are up and running, depending on your availability definition.

Perform the following steps to define the availability of a service:


Application. 4. Click on the Monitoring Configuration tab. 5. Click on the Availability Definition link. 6. You may select Service Test or System from the Define Availability Based On dropdown

list. 7. Enter the request information and click OK to save your changes.

Service‐Level Rules Service‐level parameters are used to measure the quality of the service. These parameters are usually based on actual service‐level agreements or on operational objectives.

Grid Control's Service Level Management feature allows you to proactively monitor your enterprise against your service‐level agreements to verify that you are meeting the availability, performance, and business needs within the service's business hours. For service‐level agreements, you may want to specify the levels according to operational or contractual objectives. By monitoring against service levels, you can ensure the quality and compliance of your business processes and applications. Perform the following steps to edit service‐level rule for a service:


Application. 4. Click on the Monitoring Configuration tab. 5. Click on the Edit Service Level Rule link from the Related Links section. 6. Enter the request information and click OK to save your changes.

Topology View Use the Topology page (sub‐tab), to view the dependencies between the service, its system components, and other services that define its availability. Upon service failure, the potential causes of failure, as identified by Root Cause Analysis, are highlighted in the topology view. In the topology, you can view dependent relationships between services and systems. Service Performance Grid Control provides a graphical representation of the historic and current performance and usage trends in the Charts page (sub‐tab). You can view metric data for the current day (24 hours), 7 days, or 31 days. The thresholds for any performance or usage alerts generated during the selected period are also displayed in the charts. This helps you to easily track the performance and usage of the service test or system over time and investigate causes of service failure. Use the Test Performance page (sub‐tab) to view the historical and current performance of the service tests from each of the beacons. If a service test has been defined for this service, then the response time measurements as a result of executing that service test can be used as a basis for the service's performance metrics. It is possible to have multiple response time measurements if the service access involves multiple steps or the service provides multiple business functions. Alternatively, performance metrics from the underlying system components can also be used to measure performance of a service. If performance of a service seems slow, it may be due to high usage of the service. Monitoring the service usage helps diagnose poor performance by indicating whether the service is affected by high usage of a system component.

You can also set the publishing options for reports so that they are sent out via email at a specified period of time. For information about creating Services Monitoring Dashboards, please see the Creating a Service Dashboard Report section. Additionally, Enterprise Manager provides an out‐of‐box report for Oracle Internet Directory. Perform the following steps to view the usage statistics report for Oracle Internet Directory:

1. Click on the Reports tab. 2. Select Oracle Internet Directory from the Target Type drop‐down menu.

3. Select the User Operation Statistics report.

Troubleshooting the Management Pack Plus for Identity Management

This section describes common problems that you may encounter when monitoring and managing Oracle Access Manager, Oracle Identity Manager and Oracle Identity Federation with the Management Pack Plus for Identity Management. It contains the following topics:

• Failure to Discover Oracle Access Manager, Oracle Identity Manager or Oracle Identity Federation

• What OS User Privileges required for Windows Host Preferred Credentials • Certain Metrics Are Not Collected • The Status of Certain Components in Enterprise Manager Differs from the Status of the

Same Components in the Windows Services Panel • Internet Explorer Crashes When Trying to Perform Multiple Recording Transactions for

the Same Application • How to enable Browser Simulation on Windows XP beacon?

Failure to Discover Oracle Access Manager, Oracle Identity Manager or Oracle Identity Federation

Problem

The discovery of Oracle Access Manager, Oracle Identity Manager or Oracle Identity Federation fails and, consequently, Enterprise Manager does not create the corresponding Oracle Identity Management targets.

100 | P a g e



Possible Cause

• The configuration of Oracle Identity Management components is not complete. Make sure that all pre‐requisites have been completed before the discovery process. Refer to the Discovering & Configuring Oracle Identity Management Targets section.

• The credentials requested for discovering the Oracle Identity Management components may be inaccurate – e.g. SNMP Agent UDP Port or Community Name may be incorrect, and as a result, the discover of Oracle Access Manager fails.

Solution

• Review Supported Products and Platforms: Make sure that the version and the platform associated with the Oracle Identity Management component that you would like to discover are supported in the Management Pack Plus for Identity Management. For more information, please see the System Requirements section.

• Complete ALL Installation Pre‐Requisites: Make sure that all pre‐requisites have been completed before the discovery process. Refer to the Discovering & Configuring Oracle Identity Management Targets section.

• Provide Accurate Credentials: The credentials requested for discovering the Oracle Identity Management components may be inaccurate – e.g. SNMP Agent UDP Port or Community Name may be incorrect, and as a result, the discover of Oracle Access Manager fails. Make sure that you provide accurate details.

What OS User Privileges required for Windows Host Preferred Credentials

Problem

When I enter the username and password for the Windows host administrator account, I'm getting the error "Error: invalid agent credentials." What OS privileges are required for the Windows user whose credentials are being passed as preferred credentials when Enterprise Manager 10g requires Host Login credentials?

Solution

The OS user should have the following System Privileges: • Log on as a batch job • Log on as a service

These can be granted to the user via the Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Local Security Policy These privileges are specific to Windows operating systems. There are no similar requirements for Unix/Linux systems. Certain Metrics Are Not Collected

Problem

Although the discovery completed successfully, some metrics are collected, but other metrics are not.

101 | P a g e


Possible Cause

The credentials requested for discovering the Oracle Identity Management components may be inaccurate – e.g. SNMP Agent UDP Port or Community Name may be incorrect, and as a result, the metric collection fails.

Solution

• Complete ALL Installation Pre‐Requisites: Make sure that all pre‐requisites have been completed before the discovery process. Refer to the Discovering & Configuring Oracle Identity Management Targets section.

• Provide Accurate Credentials: The credentials requested for discovering the Oracle Identity Management components may be inaccurate – e.g. SNMP Agent UDP Port or Community Name may be incorrect, and as a result, the discover of Oracle Access Manager fails. Make sure that you provide accurate details.

The Status of Certain Components in Enterprise Manager Differs from the Status of the Same Components in the Windows Services Panel

Possible Cause

Enterprise Manager collects Oracle Identity Management metrics only at certain intervals (regular metrics every 15 minutes, availability information every 5 minutes). Therefore, information visible in the Enterprise Manager user interface may be out of sync with the Windows Services panel.

Workaround

If you are interested in monitoring a certain metric in real‐time mode for a certain period, go to the All Metrics page for a given Oracle Identity Management target, navigate to the desired metric, and change it to Real‐time mode. In this mode, collection occurs more frequently and you can follow statistics more closely.

Solution

You can change the collection frequency for individual metrics. If you want the availability metrics to be collected more often, you may change the collection frequency for your key Oracle Identity Management components. Internet Explorer Crashes When Trying to Perform Multiple Recording Transactions for the Same Application

Possible Cause

A limitation in the application.

Solution

Close and start a new Internet Explorer browser window.

How to enable Browser Simulation on Windows XP beacon?

Possible Cause

To run a Web Transaction (Browser) service test, you need beacons that are running on 10.2.0.4 or later Management Agent on Windows XP.

Solution

Please refer to Advanced Configuration Guide, Section 7.4.5.2.
